Dawn Star and Silky Fox.For every game announcement from Bioware, I like to keep my fingers crossed that it will be the sequel to Jade Empire. So far, no luck, but lead designer Mike Laidlaw has given me enough cause to keep crossing.

“We will certainly announce it if it’s going to be coming out,” Laidlaw told Strategy Informer. “At this point, Jade Empire is a staff favorite and a lot of us love it, so we’d love to revisit it at some point. But right now, we are very focused on Dragon Age and Mass Effect 2.” Sure it’s not much, but I’ll take what I can get when it comes to Dawn Star. Imagine that in HD boys. Yeah.

The rest of the interview is focused on the upcoming Dragon Age: Origins, so still worth a read.
